Glass & Glazing Contractors Face These Every Day

📐 Complex Square Footage Calculations

Curtain wall, storefront glazing, and interior glass systems require calculating rough openings, mullion layouts, and panel sizes from architectural drawings. Manual takeoff is tedious and error-prone. Missing one floor or miscounting panels directly hits profit on fixed-price bids.

💰 Glass & Hardware Pricing Volatility

Glass pricing fluctuates with raw material costs. Hardware and aluminum frames follow different pricing curves. Bid the job in Q1 at Q1 prices and you're locked in while Q3 costs have shifted 15-20%. Without real-time supplier pricing, you're guessing.

⏱️ Labor Varies by System Type

Curtain wall installation labor is fundamentally different from storefront, which differs from interior partitions. High-rise work with staging costs differently than ground floor. Without tracking actual labor by system type, you're estimating blind.

⚠️ Hurricane Impact & Compliance Traps

Many projects require hurricane impact glass, soundproofing specs, or fire-rated glazing. Contract language can hide liability for failing to meet performance specs. One missed requirement can create $15K+ in rework liability.

Built by people who understand the trade. Every feature solves a real problem glazing contractors deal with every week.

🪟

AI Glazing Takeoff & Layout

Upload architectural plans. Our AI identifies all glazing areas, calculates rough opening square footage, extracts special requirements (hurricane impact, soundproofing, fire-rating). Get complete takeoff with material requirements in minutes instead of hours.

💵

Real-Time Glass & Hardware Pricing

Live pricing from glass manufacturers and hardware suppliers for glazing units, frames, and trim. Our AI matches your takeoff with current market pricing by glass type and hardware spec. Know your real costs at bid time, not six months ago.

👥

Labor Estimation by System Type

Curtain wall labor differs from storefront and interior partitions. High-rise vs. ground floor. Our AI learns your crew's actual productivity across system types and proposes labor hours based on your historical data, not industry averages.

⚖️

Spec & Compliance Review

Contract language often hides liability around performance specs. Our AI flags clauses covering hurricane impact, soundproofing, and fire-rating compliance that could create rework liability. Review before signing, not after disputes.

Glass & Glazing Contractors Are Winning More Work

Real contractors, real results.

★★★★★
"Takeoff used to take 3-4 hours per project and I'd still miss windows. Now it's 15 minutes. Caught 200+ SF of missed curtain wall on a bid that would've cost $4K to absorb."
Derek Chen
Owner, Chen Glazing Systems
★★★★★
"Real-time pricing changed how I bid. I'm not padding 18% for unknown costs anymore. Competitive AND hitting my margin targets. That alone saves $30K annually in over-padding."
Patricia Williams
Estimator, Williams Glass & Glazing
★★★★★
"Contract review flagged hidden liability around hurricane impact performance specs. We negotiated clearer language. That single catch protected us from potential $12K+ in rework."
